50 Guidance for Planning, Design, and Operations of Airport Communications Centers way to illustrate this process is to create an organizational chart, asset diagram, or hierarchy chart that will show how information will be received by the ACC and then disseminated throughout the airport and beyond to external organizations. 4.7.9 Organizational and Business Impact Incorporating a new ACC into an existing airport management's structure will likely result in the modification of numerous functional interactions and physical interfaces outside of the ACC.

54 S E C T I O N 5 Simple ACCs have a history dating back to the early part of the 20th century when airports started to become common throughout the world. During the early days of aviation, technology tools were relatively few -- most airports' communication technology toolkit consisted only of radios and telephones and airport staff typically had direct visual contact with passengers, aircraft, and airport facilities.

62 Guidance for Planning, Design, and Operations of Airport Communications Centers The technology and human factors/ergonomics designers should be involved from the beginning of the design process. Technology can affect architectural and engineering design significantly, sometimes in ways that only the technology designer can anticipate.
